Budget Conference 2023 - Can South Africa Be Saved?

The 2023 Budget is more than a budget announcement. It is a statement of intent on how the government plans to lead South Africa out of its current crisis. Will it be more platitudes and trite promises? Or will the government come up with a real plan to deal with recent domestic failures, including load-shedding, failing SOEs and the cost-of-living crisis?

Join our team of economists and political commentators to hear their thoughts on these and other important topics.
